BoTox has become fashionable amongst trendy Sydney society in fact it is becoming a grooming essential for many in the Harbour City.

Yet I am always surprised by the number of half-truths that surround this procedure.

Below are some of the more myths which I encounter everyday in Star Cosmetic Medicine, where I practise as a physician.

Fallacy no. 1: BoTox can immobilize all my facial expressions!

Beneath the skin of the face are about 60 muscles. Their extensive use can cause fine lines or wrinkles. When surplus BoTox is used facial muscles can become less taut. Most doctors would use comparatively small doses to make you look well rested, yet you will remain just as expressive.

Thus the right quantity of BoTox in the proper place means one should achieve a softening of the wrinkles without any reduction in facial expression.

Fallacy no. 2: Botulinum is toxic!
Actually there is a grain of truth in this. Botulinum Toxin Type A is the correct pharmacological terminology. An overdose can end up in loss of muscle tone or may even make one really ill.

However to put everything into perspective: a notable chemist’s expression states that ‘everything is poisonous - it all depends on the dose’. Any medication in a large dose will make you sick. Water can kill you if enough is taken.

Fallacy no. 3: BoTox hurts!
The needles used at Star Cosmetic Medicine have a diameter smaller than your hair. Quite a few people say that the shots are not worse than a bug bite. For Certain not painful compared to having a vaccination.

Fallacy no. 4: BoTox will deaden the sensation in my face!
False. BoTox affects the neuromuscular junction, and not on the nerves of sensation. BoTox just impacts on the relaxation of muscular tissues.

Fallacy no. 5. You have to keep having BoTox or else you might wrinkle quicker than before!
Also incorrect.

One BoTox treatment lasts around 3 months. Further treatments tend to last a little longer. The wrinkles will gradually reappear as the muscle regains its strength. But your wrinkles definitely will not be any more pronounced than when you began your treatment.

Even should you don’t have BoTox treatments again - any wrinkles should be less severe than if you had not undergone the procedure. Due to the fact that your facial muscles and skin have had a ‘wrinkle holiday’ for a few months.
